History of our Fair


In 1957, the Front Royal Jaycees put on the first Warren County Agricultural and Industrial Fair. It was held in an area of Front Royal, Va called “Viscose City” south of the American Viscose Plant, which is home to the Skyline Soccer Complex today.

In 1960, The Jaycees purchased the land where the fairgrounds are located today: at the intersection of Rt. 340/522 and Fairgrounds Road.

On March 18, 1987 the Front Royal Jaycees executed a deed of gift conveying the Front Royal Fairgrounds to the Warren County Fair Association, a non-profit community based organization.

The Warren County Fair is a family oriented event that provides families in our community with a low-cost, safe, and fun environment to enjoy together. Our goal is to educate, entertain, stimulate, and challenge fairgoers. We offer music, motorsport events, pulling contests, animal shows, and a Monster truck event. The fair also helps our young people gain knowledge, confidence, and leadership skills through various 4-H events.
